SOP ..."All this angelic righteousness is just the thing for a cold 12th night / Epiphany. Do keep it coming though - either that or take the bother to read what this thread was actually about."

The second of your two quotes was actually from my one and only posting on this thread. You seem to be making the assumption that some of us have not been reading the whole of the thread - I can assure you that I had read all the postings before commenting (and since). Since all the comments which I would have wished to make have been made by others, some of whom are actually affected by or personally involved in these issues,I don't propose to add anything further .
